WARNING: To maintain
proper grounding, do notalter the grounding prong inany manner.
120V OPERATION
As received from the factory,your compressor is ready to runfor 120V operation. Thismachine is intended for use ona circuit that has an outlet and aplug which looks like the oneillustrated in Fig.1.
WARNING: Do not use a two-prong adapter.
EXTENSION CORDS
The use of any extension cordwill cause some loss of power.It is recommended to use alonger air hose instead of anextension cord. Use the chartbelow to determine theminimum wire size extensioncord. Use only 3-wire extensioncords which have 3-pronggrounding type plugs and 3-holereceptacles which accept thetool’s plug.
For circuits that are furtheraway from the electrical circuitbox, the wire size must beincreased proportionately inorder to deliver ample voltage tothe motor.
OPERATION CONTROLSCHECK VALVE
When the compressor isoperating, the check valve is“open”, allowing compressed airto enter the air tank. When theair compressor reaches “Cut-Out” pressure, the check valve“closes”, allowing air pressure toremain inside the air tank.
ON/OFF SWITCH (A) FIG. 3
Turn this switch ON (pressdownwards) to provide power tothe automatic pressure switchand OFF to remove power at theend of each use.
PRESSURE SWITCH
The pressure switchautomatically starts the motorwhen the tank pressure dripsbelow the factory set “Cut-in”pressure. It also stops the motorwhen the air tank pressurereaches the factory set “Cut-Out”pressure.
REGULATOR (A) FIG. 4
The air pressure coming from theair tank is controlled by theregulator. Turn the regulatorknob clockwise to increasepressure and counterclockwiseto decrease pressure. To avoidminor readjustment after makinga change in the pressure setting,always approach the desiredpressure from a lower pressure.When reducing from a higher toa lower setting, first reduce thepressure less than that desired,then bring it up to the desiredpressure. Depending on the airrequirements of each particularaccessory, the outlet regulatedair pressure may have to beadjusted while operating theaccessory.
OUTLET PRESSURE GUAGE(B) FIG. 4
The tank pressure gaugeindicates the reserve air pressurein the tank.
TANK PRESSURE GAUGE (C)FIG. 5
Indicates the available reserveair pressure in the tank.
DRAIN VALVE (A) FIG.5
The drain valve is located on thebase of the air tank and is usedto drain condensation at the endof each use.

SAFETY PRESSURE RELEASEVALVE (A) FIG. 6
If the pressure switch does notshut off the air compressor at itscutout pressure setting and theair pressure keeps rising, thesafety valve will protect againsthigh pressure by “popping out”above factory set pressure(slightly higher than the pressureswitch cut-out setting).
WARNING: If the safetypressure release valve doesnot work properly, overpressurization may occur,causing air tank to rupture orexplode. Pull the ring on thesafety valve daily to make surethat the safety valve operatesfreely. If the valve is stuck ordoes not operate smoothly, itmust be replaced with thesame type of valve.
SETTING UP YOUR AIRCOMPRESSOR
Operate the air compressor in adry, clean and well ventilatedarea. Clean off dust or dirt thatcollects on the air compressor. Aclean air compressor runs coolerand provides longer service. Theventilation openings on your aircompressor are necessary tomaintain proper operatingtemperature. Do not place ragsor other containers near theseopenings.
ADDITIONAL REGULATORSAND CONTROLS
Since the air tank pressure isusually greater than that which isneeded, a regulator is employedto control the air pressure aheadof any individual driven device.Separate air transformers whichcombine the function of airregulation, moisture and dirtremoval should be used whereapplicable.
PREPARATION FOR USE1) Check the oil level. Add theappropriate amount of oil to thecompressor.
2) Before attaching the air hose oraccessories, make sure theOn/Off switch is set to “OFF” andthe air regulator is closed(completely turnedcounterclockwise).
3) Attach the 1/4in. female fitting(A Fig.7) to one end of the coilhose (B), then connect the femalefitting (A) into the quick connectoutlet (C) at the back of thecompressor, then attach the 1/4in.female quick connect (D) to theother end of the coil hose. Attachoptional air tool or suppliedaccessories. To prevent air leaks,it is recommended to install TeflonTape (not supplied) on the threadsat both ends of the coil hose.
4) Turn the switch to the Onposition and allow tankpressure to build. Motor willstop when tank pressurereaches “cut-out” pressure.
5) Open the regulator byturning it clockwise. Adjust theregulator to the correctpressure setting. Thecompressor is ready.
WARNING: Too much airpressure causes ahazardous risk of bursting.Check the manufacturer’smaximum pressure ratingfor air tools andaccessories. The regulatoroutlet pressure must neverexceed the maximumpressure rating of the toolbeing used.
AFTER USE1) Set the switch to Off.
2) Turn the regulatorcounterclockwise to set theoutlet pressure to zero.
3) Disconnect the air tool oraccessory.
4) Pull ring on safety valve (A)Fig.6, allowing air to bleedfrom the tank until tankpressure is approximately 20PSI. Release safety valve ring.
5) Drain water from air tank.Turn drain valve (A) Fig. 5counterclockwise to open.
WARNING: Water willcondense in the air tank. Thewater will corrode andweaken the air tank causinga risk of air tank rupture if itis not drained properly.
NOTE: If drain valve is
4
plugged, pull ring on safety valve(A) Fig.6, and hold until all airpressure has been released. Thedrain valve can
then be removed, cleaned, andreinstalled.
6. After the water has beencompletely drained, turn the drainvalve to close. The air compressorcan now be stored.
MAINTENANCE
Before doing any maintenance oradjustments to your aircompressor, the following safetyprecautions should be taken:
- Disconnect electrical power.
- Release air tank pressure.
DAILY OR BEFORE EACH USE
1) Drain condensation from tank.
2) Check for unusual noise orvibration.
3) Be sure all nuts and bolts aretight.
4) Check the oil level.
5) Check the air filter.
After 500 hours of operation,change the oil.
KEEP TOOL CLEAN
Periodically blow out all airpassages with dry compressedair. Clean all plastic parts with asoft damp cloth. NEVER usesolvents to clean plastic parts.This could possibly dissolve orotherwise damage the material.
CAUTION: Wear safety glasseswhile using compressed air.
FAILURE TO START
Should your compressor fail tostart, check to make sure theprongs on the cord plug aremaking good contact with theoutlet. Also, check compressorfuse or tripped circuit breakers inthe line.
